which statements are true when solving x*2 -8x +16=0?

A x=+4.

B Factor to solve.

C x=4 is a double root.

D Complete the square root to solve.

E The equation is a perfect trinomial.

Respuesta :

Given:

The given equation is

[tex]x^2-8x+16=0[/tex]

To find:

The correct statement for the given equation.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]x^2-8x+16=0[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]x^2-2(x)(4)+(4)^2=0[/tex]

Using the identity of perfect square trinomial, we get

[tex](x-4)^2=0[/tex]            [tex][\because (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2][/tex]

[tex](x-4)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=4[/tex]

Here, x=4 has multiplicity two because the power of factor (x-4) is 2.

x=4 is a double root and the equation is a perfect trinomial.

Therefore, the correct options are C and E.

Answer:

B) Factor to solve.

C) x = 4 is a double root.

E) The equation is a perfect square trinomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor to solve.<

By inspection, the equation is a perfect square trinomial.

x = 4 is a double root

By inspection, the middle term's coefficient 8 is twice the square root of 16, the constant; therefore, it is a perfect square trinomial.

x2 − 8x + 16 = 0 → (x − 4)(x − 4) = 0 → x = 4 is a double root.
